A Loose Women star has praised her "hero" son after being rushed to hospital for extreme pain.
Kéllé Bryan appeared on the daytime programme this week and spoke out about her terrifying health ordeal.
The 49-year-old explained that she woke up in the middle of the night in severe pain after an otherwise regular day.

According to The Sun, she said: "I recognised it because I'd had a brief encounter with it two weeks before so I had a feeling, this is kidneys. I had that sense. It's worse than labour, debilitating straight away."
The ITV star added that she knew the situation was serious when she had to wake her 12-year-old son for help.
The Loose Women star said: "In the end, I had to wake up one of my children, I felt really bad but I thought, I just can't, this is an emergency. So I crawled up the stairs on my hands and my knees and I woke him up.
"I said 'Mummy just needs your help, I need you to be really grown up and I need your help' Then he said, 'Right, what do I need to do?'"

After being rushed to hospital, it turned out that the singer had a kidney stone lodged in her urethra.
Kéllé said that overeating played a part in the health scare, telling her ITV co-stars: "I overeat, which is weird. Too many tomatoes, too much spinach, so it's really about eating well but everything in moderation."
Loose Women airs weekdays on ITV1 and ITVX.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
